We recently had a discussion about living in areas prone to big natural disasters~~~hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and earthquakes.

Insurance-wise the worst enemies are our good friends wind and hail.

Here are the ten most costly states for homeowners insurance:

1. Texas
2. Louisiana
3. Oklahoma
4. Florida
5. District of Columbia
6. Mississippi
7. Kansas
8. Colorado
9. California
10. Minnesota

I'm not sure of the reasoning behind it, but my homeowner's insurance went up 10% this year. We've had no claims, so I wonder if the storms elsewhere are getting a little help from everywhere courtesy of the insurance companies.
